Description

We present the study of the showers initiated by low momentum (p <10 GeV) electrons, pions and protons in the highly granular CALICE scintillator-tungsten HCAL. The data were taken at the CERN PS in 2010. The analysis includes energy resolution measurements for each particle type and studies of the shower development in both longitudinal and transverse planes. The results are compared with several GEANT4 models
